UPDATED CONTACT INFORMATION
If there have been any changes to your contact information, please contact the school office with the new information. This includes address, email, and phone numbers.
This is very important as we prepare for the new school year!
ENROLLMENT
If your enrollment decision has changed, please make sure that you contact our Student Data Management Clerk, Mrs. Patterson, at lpatterson@newlifeacademyga.com to begin the withdrawal process. This will greatly help with transitioning to other schools, as well as opening up spots for those on our current wait list.
MEDICATION
As the medication pick-up deadline has passed, all medication has been disposed of at both campuses. All students requiring medication at school will need a new Authorization Form and new medication brought to the school by an adult after the start of the new school year.
RISING 7TH GRADERS:
All students entering the 7th grade are required to have one dose of Tdap (tetanus, diphtheria and pertussis booster) and one dose of MCV4 (meningococcal conjugate vaccine). The law requires that a current certificate be submitted verifying that the student has received both vaccines before they enter 7th grade.
According to Gwinnett County Public School Procedure P.JBA, a child may be excluded from school attendance until an updated immunization certificate is provided. Certificates will also be considered in compliance if they provide evidence of medical exemption and have not expired. Parents who previously filed a Religious Affidavit of Exemption with the school do not need to file another affidavit.
Vaccinations and immunization certificates are available through your private physician, other healthcare providers, or at the local health department offices listed below. For health department hours and vaccine availability, please visit https://www.gnrhealth.com/locations or call the numbers provided below.

As a reminder, if you are financially eligible, your child can receive vaccines at no cost through the Vaccines for Children program, though an administration fee will apply for each vaccine. If you are unable to pay the administration fee, please ask to speak with the center manager at your local health center for financial assistance. Be sure to bring this letter with you when you visit the health center.
